I am 65. Bought my first and only Packard, an unrestored 1947 Super Clipper in 2002. It is my only collector car unless my '83 Volvo 240 counts as one also.
Living in the Canadian north since my late teens I had no need to own as car since there were no roads so my main passion was Noorduyn Norseman and DHC Beaver bushplanes. I didn't buy a car until 1965 (1952 Chrysler Windsor for $200) when I went south to attend the Ontario Ranger School to become a game warden. In 1966 I bought a 1947 Cadillac 75 limo for $300 off of a car lot in Sudbury Ont. so I guess that was my first "collector" car.
